South Portland, Maine middle school librarians, Connie Burns and Dan Wolotsky strike a pose after an evening celebrating kid created comics.
Check out the comics created in Comic Life by Memorial Middle School kids and Mahoney Middle School kids.
These two never fail to take advantage of every grand opportunity books or authors offer. This year they pulled off a fabulous school wide read of Maria Testa‘s Something About America and a comic book workshop with Anne Sibley O’Brien for The Legend of Hong Kil Dong.
They are also known to careen across the bridge with students for author events at the Portland Public Library. They provided agog boys for a comic afternoon with Jeff Kinney for his series, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and they provided a roomful of brilliant girls to see Mitali Perkins and Jamie Hogan present Rickshaw Girl.
Darn nice to work with brains like these.
